Ok, I still get
IMAP error: Mailbox doesn't exist: Mail/INBOX
when my account definition just includes
set folder=imaps://username@servername/Mail/
but when I put in an extra line
set inbox=imaps://username@servername/INBOX
s-nail starts up in my inbox and can also access the folders in my Mail
subdirectory. Good.
I think that having a separate inbox variable is actually a clear and
rational way of specifying that on this server the inbox and the folders
are in different places, rather than having s-nail magically replace
Mail/ in the folder definition with INBOX behind the scenes to tell the
server where the inbox is, which is what mailx does. However, anyone
accustomed to using mailx with this style of imap server and expecting
compatibility needs to be warned.
The new inbox= line doesn't appear to do any harm in mailx, so
it looks safe to have it in a .mailrc to be used by both programs.

Hello list.
We are happy to present you an Entomologic sensation, which
counteracts the decline of life that can be seen all around us.
Inspection of environments that mankind hasn't seen since ancient
times reveiled a sofar undiscovered species of dung beetle: the
Cyrustrupidae.
Thanks to Stephen Isard, Ralph Corderoy, Jürgen (Juergen) Daubert,
Lyndon Nerenberg and David Levine.
We welcome Lyndon Nerenberg and David Levine in THANKS.
Apologies to Jürgen Daubert (false spelling of name in commit message).
S-nail will become S-mailx after v14.9, and all project resources
will move to www.sdaoden.eu with v14.9; only the ML remains hosted
at Sourceforge.net as of this writing.
We thank Sourceforge.net for hosting this project so many years!

NOTES, ChangeLog (packager-affine)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- We now support IMAP internationalized names, to be "simulated" via the
new user command `imapcodec'#135|#_135:
?0[tmail ]? imapc enc Trübe/Wölkchen
in: Trübe/Wölkchen (16 bytes)
out: Tr&APw-be/W&APY-lkchen (22 bytes)
?0[tmail ]? imapcodec decode Tr&APw-be/W&APY-lkchen
in: Tr&APw-be/W&APY-lkchen (22 bytes)
out: Trübe/Wölkchen (16 bytes)
?0[tmail ]? copy 1 +Trübe/Wölkchen
"imap://user1@localhost/Trübe/Wölkchen" [New file] 6850 bytes
Those who were used to get around the missing support by using
readily-encoded names have to update their resources because passing
in such a name will result in re-encoding. [Quite a lot, see below]
- The special handling of *folder*#382|#376 for IMAP boxes has been
deprecated after introduction of the new *inbox*#396|#_396 variable,
which will henceforth be regulary used for expansions of "%"
filenames. If it is set to the empty string then _only_ that
special-casing of *folder* is bypassed, and the usual $MAIL /
compile-time mailspool search is applied. [c220e90,a324bf3]
(Stephen Isard, Jürgen Daubert)
- Cyrus IMAP servers with their dot hierarchy delimiter should now be
supported. The variable *imap-delim*#393|#_393 (and [-USER]@HOST
variants) will be used to normalize if set, otherwise the first seen
possible delimiter is used. [a65afca,9e23878,21568f8]
(Stephen Isard, Jürgen Daubert)
?0[tmail ]? Fi+Trübe.............Wölkchen
IMAP error: Mailbox doesn't exist: Trübe.Wölkchen (0.000 + 0.000 secs).
#ERR#?1[tmail +Trübe.Wölkchen]? set imap-delim-user1@localhost=/.
Oh. Mailbox changed. Not before v15, sorry.
?0[tmail +Trübe.Wölkchen]? Fi+Trübe.............Wölkchen
"+Trübe/Wölkchen": 1 message [Read only]
?0[tmail +Trübe.Wölkchen]? unset imap-delim-user1@localhost
?0[tmail +Trübe.Wölkchen]? Fi+Trübe/.............Wölkchen
"+Trübe/Wölkchen": 1 message [Read only]
git(1) shortlog (edited)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
44087f3 `z': add ^: goes to first screen; fix max calc for 0 modulos
1657626 Simplify *folder* (implicit trail solidus) (Stephen Isard, Ralph
Corderoy)
7a09af6 `write'++: !interactive: urlxenc() attachment paths (Ralph Corderoy)..
If non-interactive batch mode would be commonly in use i would claim
this to be a security fix, but not yet.. If messages are `write'n out
in non-interactive mode then it is now ensured that attachments end in
the current directory, that they don't overwrite yet existing files, and
that shell pipes won't be executed (after the now applied name
conversion the pipe command ends up as a normal filename).
c220e90 Add *inbox* (Stephen Isard, and Jürgen Daubert)..
a65afca Add *imap-delim{,-{{,USER@}HOST}}* (Stephen Isard, Jürgen Daubert)
8f0f225 IMAP: [a65afca] (Add *imap-delim{,-{{,USER@}HOST}}*) for real now
All as above.
ba4f26f n_utf32_to_utf8(): fix upper limit (should be 0x10FFFF)
dfea333 page_or_print(): never use $PAGER unless startup complete
49fb63f `write'++: !interactive:.. But now, really (Lyndon Nerenberg, David
Levine)..
As above.
fcd376f THANKS: David Levine and Lyndon Nerenberg
57c4ee3 cmd_tab.h: allow history for `unset', `unsetenv' (i.e.: tweak
[ec81a41])
9e23878 *imap-delim* if not set, use first delim user gave
a324bf3 *inbox*: if empty, only bypass *folder* to $MAIL or builtin default
202b1a6 Add `urlcodec', obsolete `url{en,de}code'
21568f8 *imap-delim*: aeh, just fix this even for mailbox==NULL
830f948 IMAP: add support for international mailbox names..
d015c46 IMAP: fix and tweak previous [830f948]
583a5bd IMAP cache: tweak previous two, i have forgotten an imap_path_decode()
call
2feab02 imap_path_decode(): better approach for [6121ff9]
36f06cc imap_path_decode(): fix corner case; `imapcodec': makeprint() when
decoding
b3803d5 `urlcodec': makeprint() when decoding
35506b0 imap_path_encode(): sigh. Finally: do not simply include & in shifted
walk
f146b54 imap_path_{en,de}code(): fix iconv_open() to/from charset order
d94a0d2 imap_path_decode(): err: do not "savestrbuf(,buflen * 2)"
d7d7108 imap_path_decode(): fix UTF-16 arithmetic
Ts, ts, looks like Freud had his Freude interpreting this staggering.
But should be correct and working now.

$ git log --oneline --reverse --topo-order --merges OLD..NEW
# Same, but truly accessible:
